A new James Bond movie means a re-hash of the old favourites list. Pay attention Rewinders...

BEST BOND

1) Pierce Brosnan
2) Sean Connery
3) Roger Moore
4) Daniel Craig
5) Bob Holness (on radio)
6) David Niven
7) Timothy Dalton
8) George Lazenby

BEST BOND FILM

Goldeneye, The Man With The Golden Gun (if only for Lulu's ridiculous, innuendo riddled theme that features lines line "he's got a powerful weapon' and "who will he bang next?")

BEST BOND GIRL

Xenia Onatop

BEST BOND GADGETS

Super car from 'Die Another Day'

Connery
Craig
Brosnan
Moore
Lazenby
Dalton

Movie: GoldFinger, From Russia With Love

Girl : Tatiana Romanova (From Russia With Love)

Baddie : Jaws

Gadget: actually, the best movies are those where the gadgets are not the stars. However, I have to say that the best 'mechanical aids' I have seen in Bond moviesare the aston Martin DB5 and the Aston Martin DBS.

'Mechanical aids'? (Roger Moore eyebrow)

Best villian: Jaws was fearsome, but those teeth were as big a weakness as they were a strength. Christopher Lee was the coolest Bond bad guy for years, until Sean Bean's 006. I always thought 006 was the most complex and empathic Bond villian to date, deserves his own spin off really.

My son is reading everyone's responses, and he says that GoldenEye stinks, and Pierce Bronson and Timothy Dalton stink too. He said the car in Die another Day was awful because it could turn invisible and he says that was so fake, and when there's a scene where the Chinese guy in the pimped out Jaguar with the machine guns and missels is chasing after Bond...Bond flips the car over using the ejector seat, and that would be impossible, and he turns the car invisible...and my son says that was lame.

My son said the Sonic Ring is the coolest thing, because that seems like something that could actually be real..like the government could make something like that...and he thought it was cool when he puts his hand on the glass and twists the ring and the glass shatters and people fall through the floor. That's cool.

Isis, how does he know they haven’t already made the invisible car? After all: if it worked; you wouldn’t know it was there.

'Goldeneye' explores the nuances of what it is to be a spy: the betrayal, the way that something which was once life-or-death becomes worthless, it’s quite a complex Bond movie in its themes, and 006 is Bond’s alter ego; ‘Janus’ is the organisation but the two faces of that mythological Greek god represent the two faces of a spy and the two faces looking in opposite directions: 007 & 006.

Brosnan is Bond. I especially love the urban legend that film critics working in the tabloid gutter press were told to rubbish ‘Tomorrow Never Dies’ because Rupert Murdoch thought it was about him...nonsense, Elliot Carver was a saint compared to Murdoch.

Kash if that is true...maybe Wonder Woman's plane is real too.
